-5x^3 + 2x^2 + 1
a coefficient is the number that is multiplied by the variable.For instance, the coefficient of 2x is 2....because 2 (the number) is multiplied by the variable x.
so in ur problem....there are 2 coefficients..-5 and 2.
** the number 1 is not a coefficient, it is a constant...a " loner " with no variables (letters) attached.
** and if u have just the letter...such as n, the coefficient to that is 1 but the one is just not written...it is actually 1n.
okay...I am gonna shut up now :)
Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:
Let the quotient be represented by 'Q'.
Given:
The difference of a number 'y' and 16 is 
Quotient is the answer that we get on dividing two terms. Here, the first term is 40 and the second term is
. So, we divide both these terms to get an expression for 'Q'.
The quotient of 40 and
is given as:

Now, we need to find the quotient when
. Plug in 20 for 'y' in the above expression and evaluate the quotient 'Q'. This gives,

Therefore, the quotient is 10, when the value of 'y' is 20.
Here, f(x) = kx
k = f(x)/x
k = 48/8
k = 6
So, when x = 2,
f(x) = 6 * 2
z = 12
In short, Your Answer would be: 12
Hope this helps!
